India Health Insurance Industry Trends and Drivers:
The health insurance market in India is on the way to drastic growth due to certain major factors. Of these factors, the most important is the increasing medical cost that motivates individuals and businesses to look for extensive health coverage. While health treatment continues to cost high, the consumers are progressively aware of needing protec¬tion against unforeseen expenses and, hence, are going for increased health insurance. The growing set is especially in urban areas where health services become bro-ader public awareness and the demand for quality healthcare is higher. Moreover, the upsurging prevalence of lifestyle-associated diseases such as diabetes, heart diseases, and obesity makes it imperative for health management to be proactive; thus, it induces the need for health insurance coverage. As more and more individuals desire to protect their health while managing these chronic diseases, it is rapidly growing.
The growth of the India health insurance market is additionally due to more access to insurance coverage-increasingly, corporate health insurances. With employers’ offering increasing health insurance along with other related employment benefits package, a major chunk of the working population is indirectly benefitted by these insurance products. The same trend would also increase the overall growth of this health insurance as more employees and their families thereafter gravitate towards employer-provided policies. In addition to this, the government’s backing through the promotion of various schemes such as the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) also enhances access to health insurance, especially among the lower-income sections. These would keep bridging the coverage gap so that a larger part of the population receives affordable health care.
However, the influence of digital technologies is observed in enhancing experience or progress towards making insurance more accessible to all Indians. Further, digitization will allow consumers to compare policies readily, issue policies at any time, and allow easily processing of claims. With increased usage of technology, the continual growth from using health insurance using digital platforms is higher for the younger population growing, with its characteristics reflected by mobile apps and online portals being the source of healthcare needs. Innovations in digitalization, latest government support, and growing awareness among consumers would add greater possibilities for panning in India health insurance.
